Good morning, afternoon, or evening, friends and fellow deep leaguers, as we’re suddenly at the point where we can start measuring the remaining time of another Major League Baseball season in days rather than weeks. When it comes to fantasy, I have exactly one league where I need wins but have such a huge lead […]

Well, we’re down to just over three weeks of regular season baseball left; here’s to hoping you have at least one team in the running for a fantasy title or at least a money finish. While I have a few teams that have been left in the fantasy dust, I also have several that are […]

Happy Labor Day, deep-league friends! Hope you’re out of the path of any stormy weather and that the weekend treats you well, whether you are laboring or kicking up your heels as we head into the final month of baseball. I’ve noticed my virtual inboxes filling with fantasy football offers, announcements, and other updates, which […]

Not sure how this happened, folks, but in less than a week it’s gonna be September! I’ve said it again and again, but why stop now… even if you’re out of the running for a title in your deeper league(s), this is not the time to tune out completely. The more we observe now, the […]

What a difference a week makes. Since we last chatted, we’ve had one of the best middle infielders in each league become suddenly unavailable to their fantasy owners, and what’s followed has been, if not life imitating art, at least the fantasy community imitating major league baseball. Jonathan Aranda, Osleivis Basabe, Vaughn Grissom, and Nicky […]

Wake up, my friends! I am experiencing first-hand how difficult it can be to stay focused on a disappointing fantasy baseball team or two, especially when presented with alternate activities like hitting the beach, heading out on a family vacation, or preparing for a soon-to-happen football draft. But I’ll once again say to myself and […]

The trade deadline has come and gone, and overall I think the transactions that preceded it did more to hurt my fantasy teams than to help them as we storm into August. I’m also realizing that because the deadline is later than it used to be, it feels like we have more time left in […]

I don’t know about you, but now that we’re in the throes of summer, keeping as mentally focused as I should be to stay on top of several fantasy baseball leagues is getting more and more difficult, even for those teams that are doing well. Whether you’re on a frivolous vacation or working hard, whether […]

The All Star Break is a weird thing… everyone loves some time off, but it can really mess with your momentum. That often seems to be the case in real-life baseball, and a handful of players have looked a little dazed and confused now that action has resumed. Mitch Keller and Lucas Giolito, for instance, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?So in honor of the All Star break, which is just beginning as I write this before heading off the grid with the family for a few days, and will be just ending by the time you read this, I thought I’d take this opportunity to see which players made the biggest leaps in value […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well deep-league friends, we’ve made it to July, and I for one am finally feeling like things are starting to stabilize a bit, at least when it comes to starting pitching in several of my fantasy leagues. Finally, a couple of gems turned in by the likes of Aaron Nola and Joe Musgrove, and on […]

Well, we’ve made it, friends — we’ve officially just passed the halfway point of the season. While we may still see a few Marcus Semien-in-2022-esque turnarounds, I think we’re beyond the point of being able to blame our teams’ struggles on a handful of players getting off to a bad start, and our team’s strengths […]
